Certificate of Assurance from The Cyber Essentials Scheme

The Certificate certifies that FRA meets the Cyber Essentials implementation profile published in April 2014 and that FRA’s ICT defenses are assessed as satisfactory against commodity based cyber-attack. Cyber Essentials is a Government-backed, industry-supported scheme. The Government worked with the Information Assurance for Small and Medium Enterprises (IASME) consortium and the Information Security Forum (ISF) to develop Cyber Essentials, a set of basic technical controls to help organizations protect themselves against common online security threats. This helps organizations to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data stored on devices which connect to the Internet.
